This forceful sequel to the author's earlier book, The Genesis Flood (coauthored with Dr. Henry M. Morris, now in its sixteenth printing), restates, updates, and defends in a more popular form the basic biblical and scientific evidence for the Genesis flood as a global catastrophe, for which abundant evidence is still to be seen. As in Dr. Whitcomb's earlier writings, this latest book unabashedly radiates an unshakeable faith in the authority and trustworthiness of the Word of God. Dr. Whitcomb maintains with vigor that the Bible straightforwardly declares and affirms a supernatural catastrophic flood of worldwide proportions, a declaration that is corroborated by scientific observations that are not warped by a uniformitarian bias in geology. Striking photos illustrating such phenomena as rapid formation of stalactites and stalagmites, the recent formation of the island of Surtsey, volcanic activity, and many other interesting subjects reinforce the message of the book. - Back cover
Includes bibliographical references (pages 145-148)
1. God destroyed the world : supernaturally. The design of the ark -- The gathering and care of the animals -- The uplift of oceanic waters -- The release of waters from above -- The formation of our present mountain ranges -- 2. The flood destroyed the entire world. The depth of the flood -- The duration of the flood -- The need for an ark -- The total destruction of a widely distributed human race -- The testimony of the apostle Peter -- The problem of universal terms -- 3. The effects of the flood are visible today. The flood and natural processes -- The destructive power of moving water -- The stratigraphic effects of the flood -- The formation of fossil beds -- Catastrophic phenomena in geology -- 4. The basic issue: is the Bible truly God's word? Biblical catastrophism versus uniformitarianism -- Are geologists superior to scripture? -- A Dutch geologist versus the Genesis flood -- Henry M. Morris answers J.R. van de Fliert -- "Speak to the earth, and it shall teach thee" -- Theologians and scientists
